The Problem

The ‘Weetabix Advantage’ crops up everywhere from Love Island to Newsbeat. But Weetabix’s passive fame wasn’t converting to active sales – the brand was losing consumers to louder, omnipresent portfolio players.

The Zag

We embraced the anti-hero.

The Solution

Even the bad guys can have their Weetabix.

We reimagined a classic fairytale to see the Big Bad Wolf stick it to the three smug Little Pigs, thanks to his morning Weetabix. We brought all this to life with 700 hand-drawn frames of unadulterated nostalgia reminiscent of a certain animation studio.
